Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all of my readers. I hope you are enjoying the holiday.

The biggest hit here this year was the Nintendo Wi game system I bought for my daughter. She had an older Wi system that was bought for her when they first came out and she had a Game Cube system, and both of them had quit working this year. I knew that Game Stop would give me trade credit for them and noticed they had the refurbished Wis on sale. So, I took both broken game systems and ended up getting her  another one for $62. She wasn't expecting it and was very surprised this morning when she opened her gift.

I really tried to keep Christmas dinner simple, and actually even had almost everything on hand. The only thing I had to buy was the crescent rolls.  Here is our menu:

Paula Dean Spiral Cut Ham (Delicious!!)
Mashed Potatoes
Soup Beans (Great Northern)
Dressing
Broccoli
Corn
Crescent Rolls
Fresh Strawberries
Pecan & Pumpkin Pies
Iced Tea (Sweet & Unsweet)

I hope your holiday was wonderful and you were able to spend it with people you love.
